skiier – Bamboo Ski Poles : Handcrafted by Blake

Adam Earle – Lifelong Skier, Ski Racer

Best poles I have skied with bar none

As a lifelong skier and ski racer I have always looked for a ski pole that is light, has good flex and is easy on the hands to hold onto. When Blake first showed me his bamboo poles I was initially skeptical but once i skied with them I was hooked. The swing weight is fantastic, the superior flex allows you to pole ahead of your buddy’s in the race for the powder and the “holy cow” what are those conversations on the chairlift are priceless. I have skied aluminum, graphite and composite ski poles and Blake’s Vintage Bamboo Poles win hands down. Best poles I have skied with bar none.

So busy during the last month, weeks, days, hours…but using very frequently your bamboo poles!

As a FIS speedskiing delegate I always use a standard and technical ski equipment so, when I take my superb bamboo poles, it is synonymous of freeriding with my fat skis, in the great backcountries, on the largest and steepest slopes of the swiss and european mountains. That is the real spirit of skiing. Many thanks Blake for your great product.
